    I am so impossibly glad I’m no longer a minor and have no plans to ever have any children. Incredible how adults wanting to control young people’s lives is a phenomenon that is just not dying out.

      Smart phones and computers in general are the reason why kids have no critical thinking skills. I say this as a sysadmin of thirty years. They need to be banned from schools. kids/minors don’t get complete control. You have to be kinda childish to think they should.

      Keeping cell phones out of middle schoolers hands during school hours when they are meant to be learning, and contributing to a community is controlling their lives? Wow, it is no wonder people don’t value teachers or education in America.
